Susan’s home had damaged shingles and a couple of leaks had developed, producing stains on the ceilings of her home. The two layers of three-tab asphalt shingles were removed and then new architectural shingles were installed after the decking was inspected and the felt paper had been installed.

James and Cathy had several exterior projects in mind when they contacted Quinta Contractors, LLC. First and foremost of was the roof. The shingles showed major signs of age and de-lamination and needed to be replaced soon to avoid any future leaks. The home had 20 year three tab shingles. James elected to upgrade to 30 year architectural shingles (also called dimensional shingles).

The next issue raising concern were the galvanized gutters. Galvanized gutters are truly a thing of the past. We removed their existing gutters and down spouts and replaced them with seamless aluminum gutters and down spouts. The color white was selected to match the final element of this exterior home improvement project: namely, vinyl siding.

We made the necessary repairs to the fascia, freeze boards, and soffits. Quinta installers then installed premium vinyl siding to the walls and soffits, followed by vinyl coated aluminum which was custom fabricated on site applied to the fascia and freeze boards.

The new asphalt shingles, vinyl siding, and gutters gave the home a new crisp appearance and increased the home’s overall curb appeal. The project was done quickly and the site cleaned thoroughly before the last work truck pulled away. Cathy and James couldn’t have been prouder of the improvements to their home’s exterior.

Trip knew his old aluminum windows were drafty and not energy efficient. He and his wife had also discussed having a larger rear patio and longed for better access to the patio. He contacted Quinta Contractors, LLC after his father-in-law had highly recommended us. The resulting new patio accomplished everything Trip and his wife desired for their outdoor living space.

Trip’s New Patio Doors

Trip’s house located in the Memphis area was truly a gathering place for friends and family, but the back yard was lacking usable space to entertain. A new patio door was selected to replace the existing picture window which had a single hung window on either side. In order to install the new 60″ French door with side lights on each side, the old windows were removed as well as the lower portion of the wall.

Once the existing patio slab and walkway were removed, a new, larger washed gravel patio slab was poured. The single entry door was also discarded in favor of a new vinyl double hung window. This required the construction of a partial wall to support the window and brick work to make the transition look seamless.

The new door unit was a maintenance free metal clad door. The glass in the door and side lights were dual paned and insulated to add energy savings. Once the interior and exterior trim was installed, the project looked original to the house.

We were fortunate enough to be able to match the existing brick and this led Trip to ask for a small brick wall to define the edge of the new concrete patio. A contrasting 24″ x 36″ stone was selected and installed atop the wall and provided additional seating. Once again, Quinta Contractors had a happy customer.
